Real-time Data Pool Optimization

Leave a comment

One of the biggest costs associated with unmanaged data pooling is overages but just as damaging is unused data.  Most companies don’t realize data pools can be adjusted throughout the bill cycle. To truly avoid overages and minimize the financial impact of paying for unused data, companies need access to carrier data in real-time. Simply put, companies who don’t have access to mobile data pools in real-time are overpaying. MobilSentry™ Real-Time is what companies need; a solution that provides real-time, month-to-date usage to fine tune mobile data pool levels.

No longer do companies have to rely on incomplete and inaccurate carrier reporting tools. With up-to-the-minute data quantities in real-time, pools can be matched exactly to month-end usage levels and completely avoid the cost consequences of guessing.

Leave a comment

A Polish environmental group was using GPS tracking devices to tag and study the migration of storks. One stork’s journey to the Sudan ended up costing $2700 in international charges. This bird clearly didn’t understand roaming plans!

Wanna bet that this environmental company isn’t the only company to experience mysterious international charges? While you wouldn’t expect a stork to understand the subtleties of carrier international roam usage, many traveling employees find themselves in the same place from lack of understanding how carrier international usage works.

In the case of this stork, it was bad luck migrating without the right international feature. For companies who travel abroad, knowing the nuances of how this usage works can dramatically minimize cost. Click here to learn more.

Streaming one soccer match on company devices at high definition will consume 2 – 3GB per match. What if your company had the tools to know when and how much data was consumed by employees streaming World Cup matches?

Real-time monitoring offers the ability to not only have access to actionable feedback, but the ability to create alerts and set controls automatically. To automate means presetting thresholds to block content categories. This is the true definition of real-time control.

Knowing time and data amounts of content sites viewed in real-time provides the confidence companies need to implement alerts and notifications that modify the behavior of every data user.
